Poor Image: Boogie Knights

Randomly found trope, randomly found blurry image. Anyone have image replacement suggestions?

Knight of the Hokey Pokey cropped so it's just the image, of course.

Dancing Knights?

We're Knights of the Round Table, we dance when e're we're able!"◊ We do routines and chorus scenes With footwork impeccable.◊

Of everything so far, 4.2 is best, although at wiki size it may not be as clear.

Nah, it's good. I cropped off the two outermost ka-ni-gitts (the ones on either side that were heavily in the shadows anyway) and reduced it to 350 from 381:

I'm good with that! 2 would be my second option if there's a larger image.

Ni!

for 6

One or two more votes for 6 and we can run away with it.

I just wish they have plate armor and/or helmets, instead of just chainmail. Imma hold off on approval for a bit to try and find something where they're dancing in full armor, since that's a bit more illustrative.

I think it works fine. They're clearly knights and they're clearly dancing.

Oh, it DEFINITELY works. I just think it would work better in plate armor.

But I'm not finding anything so I'm not against this one, I'm just not for it yet.

Actually, full segmented plate mail hadn't been invented in King Arthur's time yet, so knights at the time would be wearing chain mail. Hooray, history!

I didn't vote yet, did I?

Well, with my vote, it's up and tagged.

Make sure to pothole it to Spamalot, and I vote for "We're Knights of the Round Table, we dance when e're we're able!" for caption.

That's a good caption option, too.

"Between our quests we sequin vests, and impersonate Clark Gable!"

I think we've lost meaning of the trope. I like the image, but it doesn't seem clunky enough.

There's two parts of the trope:

• Armor is clunky so it's funny.
• Knights are chivalrous and noble so them dancing merrily is funny.

This illustrates the second tremendously well, and I wasn't able to find a decently clear version that illustrates them both (or even one that illustrates just the first very well). I do think the first is the more important aspect of the trope (the examples certainly agree) but we didn't come up with anything that even illustrates that very well, let alone both of them.

I don't suppose this warrants a double-image...

Edit: Actually, I don't think we could actually FIND a clunky image. That's more of a video thing than an image thing.

Yeah, it's tough to convey in a static image.

I'm just posting this because I found it utterly hilarious◊.

Image doesn't need to demonstrate every little solitary aspect of the trope. That's just being OCD. The trope is "dancing knights are funny". The why's and how's are just fluff. The picture has funny dancing knights. How is that not an illustration?
